An Illinois woman has died after she was mauled at home by her recently adopted French bulldog, which had a history of dog-fighting and attacking humans.
Lisa Urso, 52, was found dead at her home in Ingleside, Ill., on Saturday evening, officials said. Urso had been scheduled to meet up with her co-workers that evening but she didn’t show, so a friend stopped by the house to check on her and found her dead.
The friend called police and officers showed up to find Urso’s body on the back porch, Fox Lake police Chief Jimmy Lee told the Daily Herald.
Lee said there were also signs of struggle throughout the house. The county coroner conducted an autopsy on Tuesday and ruled Urso’s death a result of a dog attack. “It was a vicious attack,” said
